    I don't understand your question.

    Are you referring to patient assistance? Shared Solutions, the patient support group for copaxone, pays my $30 copay each month.

      Do you mean joint pain? I was on this for 6+ years and never had problem with joint pain.

        I took Copaxone for seven years. Not so much joint pain as repeated injections in the thigh, butt, and stomach pain. Still have painful lumps and bumps after three years. Gilenya is what it is. I wasn’t expecting improvement. Plus side, no more injections. 👍👍👍

          Ohhh! Joint pain.
          No. But site injection pain. I only rotate to 4 sites in my abdomen. Hips, thighs and arms are too painful.

            I had severe joint pain for a few minutes during IPIRs, but not other times.

              Joint pain and stiffness started when switched to generic Glatiramer

              My insurance no longer covers the trade named Copaxone. So I was switched to the Mylan brand of Glatiramer Acetate (40 MG) about 3 weeks ago. Two weeks ago, I started noticing joint stiffness and pain. It is to the point now that it is hard to straighten my fingers all the way at times. My knees hurt when I stand up. My back has started hurting. I did not feel this way 3 weeks ago before I was switched to the generic brand.

              Anyone else noticed any issues with generic?

              Thanks!!
